Klaw

Klaw (Ulysses Klaue) es un personaje de ficción, un supervillano que aparece en cómics estadounidenses publicados por Marvel Comics. Se le representa como un físico humano transformado en sonido sólido, que lleva un emisor sónico en la muñeca derecha como prótesis. Se le ha mostrado a menudo en conflicto con los Cuatro Fantásticos y los Vengadores, y es enemigo de Pantera Negra y Ka-Zar.

El personaje aparece en otros productos de Marvel, como juegos de arcade y videojuegos, series animadas y mercancía como cromos. Andy Serkis interpretó al personaje en las películas del Universo Cinematográfico de Marvel Vengadores: La era de Ultrón (2015) y Pantera Negra (2018).

Habilidades : Courtesy of a vibranium-powered sonic converter, Ulysses Klaw was converted into a being composed of psionically "solidified" sound, giving him a somewhat inhuman appearance. The character is described as having superhuman durability and strength sufficient to lift tons of matter. The molybdenum steel sound generator that serves as a prosthetic appliance on Klaw's right wrist is able to transform ambient sound to perform a series of functions, including the projection of intense high-volume sonic waves and blasts of concussive force and the creation of mobile sound/mass constructs. The sound converter was invented by Klaw and later improved by AIM scientists and technicians. Klaw can also sense his surroundings using sonar. When he fought Volcana while trying to abduct Molecule Man he demonstrated the ability to create "cohesive sound".[volume & issue needed] This was essentially an entangling/crushing construct that absorbed ambient noise to increase its size and strength. The noise from the target's struggles to remove the construct would make it larger and stronger. Volcana was only able to escape it by changing into her ash form.[volume & issue needed] After Klaw became temporarily commingled with the ship of the cosmic entity Galactus and reconstructed by Doctor Doom, he became able to create semi-autonomous creatures that he could direct to attack his foes and his creatures are similarly made of solidified sound and display a similar superhuman strength level as Klaw himself. Klaw is unable to regain his original organic form. He has a susceptibility to vibranium, which can cause his mass/energy form to temporarily collapse. He is also subject to temporary mild insanity when forced to exist as sonic energy without humanoid form for long periods of time. As a result of his transformation, Klaw was at first unable to exist outside a medium that allows the propagation of sound waves (i.e. in a vacuum) without the technological improvements made to his sonic converter by AIM. But after being reconstituted by A.I.M. his "solid sound" body has different properties than normal sound waves and is not affected by a vacuum.[volume & issue needed] It was demonstrated that in this form that Klaw could also generate and direct sonic attacks through physical objects without needing his emitter by merely touching the material. Ulysses Klaw holds a Ph.D. in physics and is an expert physicist specializing in applied sonics.
